Meet the Candidates Night - TONIGHT
https://secure.smore.com/n/cbe9f
Please take a minute to read our weekly announcements.
On October 16, the SVMS CSOs (Chief Science Officers Norah Jennings, Piper Sova, and Advisor Mrs. Blaesser) visited MBS International Airport for an educational and hands-on experience at their Fall Cabinet Meeting.
The students gained valuable insights into the logistics, construction, and community impact of the airport’s operations, particularly, the role jets play in the region.
Additionally, the group was introduced to an innovative project by Dow in Canada focused on eliminating carbon emissions, reinforcing the importance of sustainability in global industries.
As part of the visit, the CSOs toured the airport's fire department, where they observed firefighting procedures and learned about the specialized foam used to extinguish fires. They also had the exciting opportunity to tour and go on top of the fire trucks, and airport snow plow, further enhancing their understanding of emergency response at large-scale facilities.

Come join us at 7 pm on Wednesday, October 23rd at the Swan Valley Performing Arts Center for a one of a kind performance from the Detroit touring company "The Lion Heart Experience ".
Specializing in worth-infusing performances and speaking in schools nationwide, Joe Vercellino and his crew create waves in the world of education by placing the spotlight on identity and worth.
Joe and the Lion Heart crew show how both worth and identity are the core influence in everything from school violence, bullying, teen anxiety/ depression all the way to high teacher turnover in schools and issues at home.
With strong themes of social emotional learning, mental health awareness, drug, alcohol and suicide prevention, the lion heart experience has significant impacts on both preventing and alleviating teen anxiety in schools nationwide.
We hope to see you on Wednesday for this powerful performance!
